The cafeteria at work usually prints out a sheet on the monday for the food plan for the rest of the week, and up until today they've always served what they claimed they would.

today there was supposed to be a 'crunchy chicken' burger, but when I went there it was a beef burger instead, and they had changed some of the printed sheets with new ones that said beef burger instead.

I asked my colleagues and none of them knew,

so i was wondering, does anyone know if they are supposed to follow what they advertise or?

Head chef makes a menu, he thinks he'll put on 50 chicken burgers. They are so finger lickin' good, they sell out.

So then he thinks to himself, do I let the fuckers starve, (I would) or put on another flavour of burger.

my coworkers luuuuuuv to go the justice palace for lunch and it's the same there too.

I think this mass catering is really good part of German life, very helpful and efficient. That we can go to the city hall or the police station or hospital or wherever for a cheap full cooked lunch if we want. I like cooking but get tired of it at times and this helps a wide range of people - older, few cooking facilities at home, lonely etc.

It is a workplace canteen, there is no time to react due to the limited amount of time, the place opens only for 90 minutes and most people are in and out in the first 60 minutes, most people have only 45 minutes break. All food is pre-cooked.

I wonder whether the canteen at Airbus Bremen still has on the wall the sign in English " menu card.." It used to. It screamed German...

Our canteen offers the menu in German and English in their website, it is my hobby to check the English and German version and find out how they translated things. Sometimes is very funny. But to be fair, sometimes it is very difficult to translate it.

No, but I work at the biggest company premises in Munich (ca. 10,000 employees) as a subcontractor and I eat there. Two large canteens and two restaurants. Your dishes sound familiar to me :). They also serve Dampfnudel mit Vanillesoße as a main dish. To me it's a dessert. What about Broccoli with Cauliflower and cheese sauce?
